He had a DUI in the 2000s while with... the Kings, I think? Which is a long time ago but will be considered, obviously.
He also hired an assistant fired for sexual harassment at Berkeley, like, a month after his firing and publicly defended him. Which, in this climate, ain't great.
The way that his potential move to the Golden Bears went down also raises a lot of question marks-- it seems like they met him twice and then he immediately pulled his name from contention, despite the suggestion that this was his dream job with a big raise. Maybe he thought he was worth more and they nickel-and-dimed him... but a lot of other people have suggested that perhaps Cal was dragging their feet due to these issues he apparently comes with. Which would certainly suggest that UCLA would likely do the same.
I don't know whether people only have this or whether there are whispers that his past lifestyle may hold more skeletons. Hard to say. But UCLA may choose to be risk-averse. Then again, Alford had his own shitty past dealing with rape victims, so maybe stuff like that won't deter Guerrero.
